Replace Text before use Expression
Hy,
I have a Text layer, that is expression drived.
L = text.sourceText.length;
It = time - thisLayer.inPoint;
T = It*effect("Speed")("ADBE Slider Control-0001") - effect("Start After")("ADBE Slider Control-0001")*effect("Speed")("ADBE Slider Control-0001");
F = Math.round( It % 1.2);
if(F==1 |(T0)){Fl="|";}else{Fl="";}substr(0,T) + Fl
Now i Want to replace the Text with the sourcetext of an other Layer.
Just to link above:
comp("Program title MASTER").layer("Neuer Text").text.sourceText
doesnt work.So how can I replace the Text before the Expression is doing his job?
Thank you!
Beste Regards

I haven’t tested it, but probably something like this:
txt = comp(“Program title MASTER”).layer(“Neuer Text”).text.sourceText;
L = txt.length;
It = time – thisLayer.inPoint;
T = It*effect(“Speed”)(“ADBE Slider Control-0001”) – effect(“Start After”)(“ADBE Slider Control-0001”)*effect(“Speed”)(“ADBE Slider Control-0001″);
F = Math.round( It % 1.2);
if(F==1 |(T0)){Fl=”|”;}else{Fl=””;}txt.substr(0,T) + Fl

txt.substr() is the key!
